All you need in a Watch with uncomplicated looks
on May 15, 2024
Posted by: JuancaPZ
I bought this to have a watch that delivers instant and precise information about everything you do (or need to do) on a daily basis, for improving your health and performance ins different sports.
You can read all the information clearly and every glance is there to customize your experience.
The battery is insane, and with the solar charging you get the confidence that it will last for every activity you do!
Every once in a while i thought that the lack of a color display will disappoint, but even the tracks that i saved for later were displayed flawlessly when i needed them, and even better, the two color display is crisp clear and saves a lot of battery usage.
The rugged design will make you think you can wear it for ever (and i haven't stopped using it since i bought it a month ago) and it will deliver precise info no matter the conditions or adventure.
This is basically an awesome watch that will endure and accompanies everywhere and everything you do!

Love this watch

I’ve had it for several weeks, still on 80% because the solar keeps it charged. Had to read up on how that worked and still discovering the features but overall I love it.

All the features I need with battery life!

I'm happy with the product so far. It has all the features I need and more. The battery last over a month so I don't have to constantly charge it.

Rugged and Light

I have had every Fenix since the first and the original Instinct as well. This, to me, is the best of the bunch so far! The large screen with crisp readout, light weight, and comfy band make this a no brainer for every day wear. Now I might upgrade with this summer's impending releases of new watches, but for now I'm set :)

so far so good

Capable of more as I explore the watch. Instructions would have been helpful past quick start. The app isn't helping much when I use it. Being solar has increased the battery life and so far seems durable for farm life. The event monitor decided to send an alert while I was working, changed my alerts. It does work well, maybe too well. I am curious to see how it likes using hammers and post drivers. Overall, I am liking the change from fitbit.

Sucks

Worse harming I have ever had. The band has broke twice, It will not stay charged and the step count is so off that I don’t even use it.

Nice Watch but...

It annoys me no end I had to buy a new version of the Instinct just to get what the first version should have been. Robbery they don't even give rebate or discount for previous owners of their prototype Instinct!
